At this time, the middle-aged man in black, Song Wei, the governor of Shu specially sent by the court, suddenly stood up with red eyes.

He said angrily, "Lord Long!"

"Our ancestor was murdered, and this matter must not be let go!"

"Where is the murderer?"

"I will execute him immediately!" He looked like he wanted to seek justice for his ancestor.

Long Yun was in tears and turned his head away, his face seemed to be embarrassed and uncertain.

"Song Governor, that's all."

"This is an internal matter of Bashan. We can handle it ourselves."

"An internal matter? Could there be a traitor?"

"No, absolutely not. My ancestor and I share a bond like father and son, and he is an elder whom Your Majesty holds in high esteem and respect. I must seek justice for him, otherwise where is the law of the land?"

"Song Governor, please don't ask. We can really get out of this on our own!"

"No!" Song Wei shouted with a firm attitude.

The two of them sang in unison, almost calling out names.

At this time, Long Yun's men came out, knelt on the ground and cried, "Master Song, our ancestor was killed by the traitor Nie Nan and outsiders!"

"The murderer is now on the run, and was forcibly released by Nie Nan."

"Lord Long is kind and righteous. Considering the ties between our clansmen, he wants to give Nie Nan a chance to live, but Nie Nan refuses to repent. Please, Lord, help us!"

"Please, sir, make the decision for us!!"

In an instant, a large group of people knelt down, almost as if they had agreed on it. There were at least several hundred people, and the momentum was huge.

Watching their show, Guan Ning sneered, but still had no intention of showing up.

"what?"

"Is it Nie Nan?"

"You bastard! He even dared to harm our ancestors. What else would he not dare to do?"

"Such a heartless, unrighteous, unfilial and immoral person should be cut into pieces!"

"Bring him out to me!" Song Wei shouted angrily, with righteous indignation.

Hearing the voice, many people looked at each other with bitter expressions. They felt that something was fishy and wanted to plead for Nie Nan, but when the words came to their lips, they did not dare to say anything.

If I plead for mercy at this time, wouldn’t that make me an accomplice?

Heartless and unrighteous, unfilial and unvirtuous, these eight words are more deadly than a knife.

Long Yun's eyes flashed, and he stepped forward and said, "No!"

"Song, Governor, I think Nie Nan was simply deceived by the thieves for a while."

"Humph, what a joke!"

"Letting the culprit go, can it still be considered as bewitching the mind?"

"How can a fellow who dares to kill his own ancestors remain in this world? Even if you in Bashan don't pursue the matter, as the governor of Shu, I must deal with it!"

"Someone, drag him out!" Song Wei shouted with great momentum.

Seeing this, Long Yun acted embarrassed and pleaded for mercy.

But at this time, the crowd was gathering, and a large group of people were escorting out a man with disheveled hair and covered in wounds.

When the man appeared, Guan Ning and Lou Xinyue in the crowd could no longer sit still. They all opened their eyes wide and said, Brother Nie!

When Guan Ning saw that his body was covered with scars, he could no longer stand, and was being dragged, with his feet rubbing against the ground, his anger reached its peak!

Click, click, click!

His fists clenched and crackled: "Son of a bitch!"

Lou Xinyue's beautiful eyes were cold, and she was ready to draw her sword to save people at any time.

Nie Nan didn't see the two of them, and ignored everyone present. He just looked at the lonely mourning hall and cried loudly: "Ancestor!"

"Ancestor!"

"grandfather!"

His voice was heart-wrenching and extremely sad.

In just a moment, especially the word "Grandpa", the people present began to doubt slightly, is Nie Nan really an accomplice?

Anyone who frequented Bashan knew that Nie Nan and the old ancestor had a relationship like that of a great-grandfather and his grandson! The old ancestor always spoke of Nie Nan with pride.

Seeing this, Long Yun looked grim and quickly glanced at Song Wei.

Song Wei understood, walked out quickly, and kicked Nie Nan in the chest.

boom!

"Ah!" Nie Nan screamed and fell to the ground.

"Hmph, you bastard! You killed our ancestor and let the real murderer go. Why didn't you cry? Don't you think it's too late to act now?"

Lou Xinyue was furious and couldn't help but rush out.

But a strong hand grabbed her.

Lou Xinyue didn't understand why she had to wait, but she believed in Guan Ning's judgment.

At this moment, in front of the mourning hall, Nie Nan endured the severe pain, his veins exposed, and roared: "I didn't kill the ancestor!"

"Dog officer, do you think I don't know about what happened between you and Long Yun?"

"Ancestors, do you dare to swear in front of the spirit that the death of our ancestor has nothing to do with you? Do you dare? Liars will have no descendants and will never be reborn!" He shouted at the top of his lungs, his fierce eyes like a wounded beast.

Long Yun and Song Wei's faces changed color at the same time. They didn't expect that the tortured Nie Nan was still so tough!

"What a courageous dog!"

"At this point, you still dare to be so stubborn!"

"Come here, immediately hang this rebellious son in front of the spirit, to comfort the spirit of our ancestors in heaven, and to apologize to the millions of people in Bashan and Shu!"

"Yes!"

The few people brought by Song Wei immediately took out the ropes they had prepared in advance, intending to hang Nie Nan on the spot.

"Let's see who dares!"

Suddenly, a loud roar exploded outside the Bashan Temple.

Guan Ning and Lou Xinyue were both shocked. Who was it?

Swish swish!

At least fifty people rushed out of the crowd, holding long swords, and protected Nie Nan at the first moment. Without exception, they were all Nie Nan's men and Ba people who had received Nie Nan's kindness and power.

They were in a standoff with Long Yun and the governor's men, with the situation tense and causing many people to scream.

"Captain Nie was wrongly accused!"

"He was wrongly accused!"

"Master Yun, Master Qiu, Master Shu, please stand up and say something!"

"They want to hang Captain Nie!"

"How could Captain Nie harm our ancestors?"

"Long Yun is a bastard. He is taking revenge on his own behalf and framing others!" Nie Nan's men shouted angrily, their emotions agitated, not caring about their own lives.
